If the stock has gone up 30% overnight, some people have made money. . . sounds manipulated, no?
The people that already owned it made money, yes.

It's not manipulated as long as people trading it are not using insider information. If someone involved in the acquisition deal used his knowledge of the pending deal to buy the stock on Friday, you bet your *** he'd be going to jail.

This is all VERY normal.
